This weekend was Whitsunday weekend in The Netherlands and the Monday is always a bank holiday. I was supposed to be in Bremen, Germany this weekend for work. But due to strikes in Germany my trip got cancelled, a realy bummer! Though it did mean I was able to visit two markets today with my husbear.

My first stop was Utrecht Fabriek, an event I visited the last few years during Whitsunday weekend. But, and I hope you don't think I am an old bitter woman, but I liked the last few editions better than this year's event. In the last few years there were lots of stalls with pretty paper, yarn, fabrics and DIY kits. Luckily there were still some ladies with pretty handmade things, but also lots of mass productions (esp. kids clothes) and I don't feel that they really belong on a market like this.

And just like last year we had a look at food truck festival TREK, it was in the same park. But alas and sadly (I may just may be an old a grumpy woman wince my bday last week), but I thought it was better last year when the festival was organised in a smaller and more intimate setting. I can't take big crowds very well and it was a little too busy for me. We did run into some of our neighbors and had some really good wines together and the croquettes by Monsieur Croquette (duck and truffle, oh my!) were awesome!

Som what did you do last weekend? What's your favorite Indie festival?
